Talk with Ted: Dementia Communication Simulation
Talk with Ted is a realistic dementia communication simulator that provides a safe and effective way for staff to practice dementia communication skills.
Staff who have experienced Talk with Ted were able to recall what they learned up to eight weeks following the training, and say it has improved the quality of care they give.
